13. A trip to the undercurrent of Hades
more
Mordegude was obviously reluctant to let a man who didn't pay the toll cross the bridge, but she could not buy the little girl, Mireyer
, but I can't help but buy the account of the backer behind Mireyer - compared to the overly powerful "person", she, the demon god, is really nothing.
So she could only look at Cheng Peng with resentment, and then raised her right hand, which was like a dried chicken claw, and drew a few strokes on Cheng Peng's chest.
"Let's go over." The demon god said in a dry, hoarse voice, "But only once! ”
Cheng Peng ignored the demon god who quickly vented his resentment on the dead, and followed closely behind the murderous little girl known as Mireyer, walked across the crystal bridge, and came to the huge demon dog that estimated that the inside of his mouth could make a group of people perform rock music. Adventure 13
Mireyer stopped and took out a thumb-sized gray crystal pendant, but did not immediately hand it to Cheng Peng.
"It's only thirty seconds, so hurry up." She admonished in an emotionless voice like a robot.
Cheng Peng nodded, took the pendant, followed her, and quickly rushed past the demon dog and rushed into an inconspicuous small doorway.
In fact, this road is not long, only two or three hundred meters, but the air is full of resistance as if it is filled with sticky, and there is an eerie and cold feeling that invades him, as if he wants to freeze his whole body.
Mireyer seemed completely unaffected, her steps were very relaxed, and she even walked and jumped like a normal little girl. Cheng Peng had to raise his strength to rush over step by step. What's worse is that every time he takes a step forward, the resistance is one point greater, and when he is close to the doorway, the resistance is already big enough to make ordinary five-star masters daunting, and the cold is even more cold, I am afraid that it can directly freeze ordinary masters to death on the spot.
Fortunately, this obstacle was not enough to stop him after all, he frowned, and burst out of Gang Qi and Wushuang Dou Qi together, and in an instant, Cheng Peng's strength increased to more than four or five times that of usual, and his body was surrounded by a sharp edge that was enough to destroy gold and jade and a dark energy that could shock the giant beast, relying on such means, he broke through all the resistance and cold around him with a crackling sound, and "waved" many tearing marks in the air, and walked into the doorway without stopping with steps that seemed to be unhindered.
After Cheng Peng passed, strange ripples suddenly appeared in the air not far away, and then two black "colored" figures appeared.
It was a middle-aged man dressed in a gorgeous aristocratic costume, and a young girl dressed in a simple maid's costume.
"Did you see it, Lord Brahms?" The girl said deferentially, "The abilities of our allies are still very reliable! ”
The middle-aged man Brahms stared at the place where Cheng Peng rushed over, frowned, and then waved his hand there. What seemed to be an empty place suddenly appeared many shadowy and longing human figures, but they were all shattered and fell to the ground in a "mess".
"It's just a few low-level necromancers who don't want to be mentioned, but this number is no joke. What are the so-called brave people in the world...... Not to mention rushing through, you have to try your luck to pick up a life under their energetic touch. Brahms said in a deep voice, "But he was able to tear them apart with just a moment's explosive power...... Oh, and there are quite a few ...... that have been directly shattered This kind of power, let alone a mere heroic spirit, even I have to take it seriously—just a messenger has it...... Alice, where did you find such monsters? ”
Alice, a maid in a maid costume, smiled silently, as if everything was under control.
But in fact, she was surprised.
In her impression. There didn't seem to be such a character among the Inhumans Wilfred had contacted, and there weren't many of those people who were really powerful, and given the abilities of the previous Couriers, there was absolutely no way to get past it—in fact, she was ready to help if necessary.
But the development of things was completely unexpected - that ordinary-looking young man actually broke free from the obstruction of the large group of necromancers, and even tore and shattered the necromantics directly by the aftermath of the charge! This kind of amazing explosive and destructive power is already an outstanding powerhouse even in the underworld!
But in any case, such a result is always a good thing for her.
After proving the strength of their allies, the cooperation negotiated between Alice and Brahms was almost a matter of course, and all that remained was a few details - neither the "King of the Undead" nor the "Maid of Hades" would easily trust others, and they would have to work out a plan that neither could be calculated against each other.
On the other side, Cheng Peng followed Mireyer and walked in the cold and barren Hades.
The scenery here is much more vivid than the outside - the ground is full of cold ice springs, and many poisonous snakes are swimming everywhere, spitting snake letters, and from time to time dragging the dead down on the road and biting them mercilessly. Adventure 13
Cheng Peng once thought that these poisonous snakes were also blocking him, but he found that none of them dared to approach Mireye, and they avoided her from a distance, as if she was some kind of flood beast.
(No...... This situation is a matter of course! After all, she is also an official of the underworld, and there is no reason why anything would dare to stop her. So what's the resistance just now? That kind of resistance and cold is unusual! )
Cheng Peng thought about these questions, did not stop at all, and followed Mireyer all the way.
After most of the day, they finally passed through these eerie places and came to a plain with small white flowers.
The flowers had no fragrance, and the leaves and petals were pitifully small, one by one far apart, shivering in the cold wind, which was not very strong, and looked pitiful. At the end of the sea of flowers is a black "colored" forest, a simple wooden house stands outside the woods, and in the open space at the entrance of the wooden house, there is a young man dressed as a farmer chopping firewood.
The young man had dark red hair that looked like congealed blood, and his expression was a little gloomy, and there was a terrible scar on his left cheek, almost all of which covered the left side of his face, and he almost blinded his eyes. Because of the relatively thin clothes, Cheng Peng clearly saw that there were still many scars on his body, many of which were overlapping, and the scars were twisted and intertwined, looking hideous and terrifying.
Compared with the injuries on this person's body, the big sword he used to chop wood in his hand was even more eye-catching: it was a giant sword almost as long as his entire person, and the sword body was surrounded by red flames, and the breath that came out alone made people feel a burst of scorching heat, and it was a rare divine weapon!
However, this divine weapon became a firewood knife for chopping wood in this man's hand, and it swung it down one by one, splitting the huge wooden stakes little by little, turning them into small pieces of firewood, which looked as if there was no edge at all.
Cheng Peng knew that it was because the owner of the weapon had completely restrained the power of the divine weapon with his own strength, otherwise, as long as such a divine sword was in his hands, not to mention the big wooden stake that was mediocre no matter how he looked at it, even a large area of ground around it would be directly destroyed!
But the man was able to wield this tremendous power with ease, and the movement of the sword to chop wood was light and smooth, and each sword fell just right, and he was always able to split a piece of firewood of about the same size...... If you look closely, his actions are like flowing water, revealing a "mesmerizing" rhythm.
Mireyer sent him here and left, not even saying a word, but Cheng Peng knew that he had found the person he wanted to meet.
Wilfred, a legendary powerhouse who was born in humans but threw himself into the underworld, once killed the mythical characters of Valkyrie, the goddess of war, and the Legion of the Immortals!
"Hello, Mr. Wilfred." Seeing that the other party was just concentrating on chopping firewood and had no intention of speaking, Cheng Peng had to speak by himself, "I'm here to deliver the goods-"
Before the words fell, Wilfred had already raised his head, his eyes were burning, and he stared at Cheng Peng tightly.
"It's good to be able to speak while I'm chopping wood!" He said.
Just as Cheng Peng was about to say a few words of modesty, Wilfred had already raised his giant sword and assumed an offensive posture.
"It's been a long time since I had a suitable opponent, come and practice my sword with me!"
